Astros Decline Will Harris' Option

Nov. 1, 2018

More from

.The Houston Astros declined the $5.5 million option on relief pitcher Will Harris for the 2019 season on Thursday, according to a source. However, because he isn't at six years of service time, he will remain under team control and the Astros can offer him a new deal by the Nov. 30 tender deadline. Harris had been outstanding his previous three seasons with the team, but 2018 was his worst, posting a 3.49 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 10.2 K/9 over 61 outings (56 2/3 innings). He could easily bounce back and be a big part of their bullpen if they keep him around, but he doesn't carry much fantasy value.

Houston Astros relief pitcher
Will Harris (groin) isn't expected to be out long in camp, according to manager A.J. Hinch. Hinch called Harris' injury "very minor," and the pitcher was able to throw off flat ground Wednesday. Harris has been exceptional for Houston the last several seasons despite being bumped from the closer role at midseason last year. He still managed a 2.25 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 69 strikeouts in 64 innings in 2016. He doesn't carry much fantasy value as an expected setup man to closer
Ken Giles, but he's worth a look in deeper league as Giles' handcuff.

Will Harris Injures Groin Tuesday

Houston Astros relief pitcher
Will Harris left the spring game with groin pain Tuesday, but he didn't sound very concerned with the injury. He should have more than enough time to be ready for opening day. Harris has been lights out since his arrival in Houston, and he had a 2.25 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 9.70 K/9 in 64 innings last year. He saved 12 games in 2016 but was lifted from the closer's role after a rough patch. He'll likely enter 2017 as one of the main setup men to
Ken Giles in the ninth. That means his fantasy value is capped without frequent save chances, but he's the best handcuff to Giles and can provide nice value in AL-only leagues for his ratios.
